Have some Optima RB Flats on my 72 Jazz, Pretty well suited to your above sound you're looking for. Not everyone's cup of tea & not suited to all musical adventures IMO

This was mine for a few months! Very eye-catching on most stages haha! Bought it from Bass Bro's earlier in the year just for a laugh (plus the LED's) a great little stingray in general and an artist I was on tour with specifically requested I use I use it in the choreography of his show (turning the lights on etc) It was custom painted & the LED's fitted by Sims for a guitar show years ago.

I can remember drooling over these on the Fender site in my youth! Did a great trade/cash with Will at Bass Bro's. Set up perfectly and such a great looking and classic sounding bass. Low B is clear too and sound just like a good P bass should too! Giving it it's first run out tonight at a dep gig too!

@ReggaebassBingo! Unfortunately it's been delayed though!

Love/Hate here too for it. Bought a Pelham Blue one recently. It's definitely not a solid body and does have a unique sound to it too. 34 inch is pretty cool also. Kept rounds of mine to help it cut through (it didn't need to) Very bright to my ears with everything turned up but just a bit uncomfortable to play personally. Just not for me. No issue of feedback here though unlike some but try one out, you never know util you try

Only ever lent a bass to someone I didn't personally know once. All the kit was stolen sadly & the management team called me up looking for a bass for a funk band playing in Cardiff (found out it was AWB when the manager dropped their name very casually on the phone) Gave me £20 a free ticket (sadly I couldn't go) and a signed album

Can anyone help identify the strings that the Acinonyx bass is shipped with? I believe them to be D’Addario Nickel Round Strings but not sure of the actual ones
-
Think you're right. The Nordstrand site says 'D'Addario Nickel Round Strings' in the specs: https://nordstrandaudio.com/products/acinonyx-short-scale-bass
